About this motif
Abstract painting relies on colour, surface and texture rather than on narrative scenes. It leaves the viewer plenty of room for their own thoughts.
Marylin Cavin's "Paisibles dans un rouge eloquent" – roughly "Peaceful in an eloquent red" – shows small pale pebbles resting in a glowing red field of colour. The warm tone and delicate shapes make for a meditative picture that pairs well with its sister work "Pierres apparentes sans histoire".
